Leica Noctilux-M 50mm f/0.95 ASPH Lens (Black)

The Leica Noctilux-M 50 mm f/0.95 ASPH in anodized finish weighs small thanks to its aluminum construction. Leica introduces the high-speed aspherical lens: the Leica Noctilux-M 50 mm f/0.95 ASPH. Thanks to state-of-the-art optics and mechanical technologies, Leica has succeeded in achieving substantial improvements. With small dimensions, a noticeable increase in lens speed has been achieved. The extremely shallow depth of field (DOF) at open aperture produces portraits and detailed studies of unequaled aesthetic effect. Even when just slightly stopped down, the result is outstanding image quality. When used in available light photography, the lens exceeds the perception of the human eye. Even the light from one candle can be sufficient for handheld photography. A "floating element" retains high image quality even in the close-up range. Vignetting and distortion have also been visibly improved.
